The name generator is simple to use. You can filter by gender and choose to generate first names, last names, or both. This name generator is decade-specific through the pull-down menu. It can only generate for a specific decade. Each run produces six names plus a word cloud with up to 100 names. The number of names shown depends on your screen size—use a computer to see more; phones and tablets show fewer. For details on the data and methodology, see my blog post on anthroponymy under “Name Generator By Era.” Click below.
